Rice with Basil and Tomatoes Recipe Directions:
Combine the chopped tomatoes, celery, Swiss cheese, shredded basil and olive oil in a serving dish; season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste, cover, and chill well.
Boil the rice in lightly salted water until it's al dente.
Drain it, give the colander a good shake to remove excess liquid, and stir the rice into the chilled tomato mixture (the heat of the rice will melt the cheese and scald the tomatoes).
Stir in the grated Parmigiano, and serve.
